The problem is not lack of leadership, the problem is lack of good leadership

About This Quote

The problem is not lack of leadership, the problem is lack of good leadership. When a person has a lack of good leadership in the workplace, that person will have a hard time accomplishing goals. It is possible for a person to have leadership skills and still be incompetent when it comes to leading others. A good leader will have the ability to manage people and give them direction while still being able to listen and incorporate input from others. In this quote, the author is asserting that the problem with organizational leadership is not a lack of leadership per se, but rather a lack of good leadership.
